My self-summary
ME: I am honest, generous, and have heart. I am deeply supportive of those that I love, and have a huge amount of energy to devote to my relationships. I have passion, determination, and persistence. I'm endlessly fascinated by our world, and there is nothing better than finding like-minded people to discuss everything under the sun. I am also a smart ass and a whole lot of fun. Confident, thoughtful, tall, pretty darn funny, a very good listener. I love to spend hours in coffee houses or over dinner talking with good friends, am passionate about music and movies/films of any and all types. Love to explore the myriad of cultural and fun stuff that this city has to offer, and generally, the more offbeat, the better. I read a great deal, write books, and love to stay home as much as I love to go out. I clean up well but usually grab for the jeans. I've had the privilege of raising two wondrous kids -- they are launched, and I am ready to fully embrace the next frontiers.

YOU: are a doer and a thinker in equal parts. You are deeply curious, unpretentious and comfortable with yourself. You have passion, yet are easy to be with. You possess a well-used mind, as well as a unique world view that fascinates me. You make a feeling arise in the pit of my stomach when I hear your voice on the phone or see you across a room-- and that is undefinable. You have a good sense of irony, can be either deeply serious or refreshingly irreverent, and retain a twinkle in your eye despite all. You have a capacity to find joy in even the smallest things, and find yourself surprised every day. Above all, despite your full and rich life, you know that the whole truly is greater than the sum of its parts, and that the possibilities are then infinite when two souls meet.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Well, it's hard to beat listening to my son and daughter playing banjo and fiddle together. Otherwise, have a strong arts background in both study and lifelong interest. Read widely. Huge movie/film buff. Chicago theatre fan, particularly smaller, fringy-er stuff. Music from classical to jazz to world to rock.

On a typical Friday night I am
When my kids were young Friday night was pizza and a movie. Now that they are well into their 20's, the whole point is...to not have a "typical."
